I don't know if anyone can help with this but I'm a bit lost at the moment. I have a toddler so I'm not completely clueless on the whole pregnancy subject. About 10 months ago I suffered a miscarriage and then decided the best option was to have the merina coil fitted - also great as I suffered really badly with my periods. That was fitted arounds 8 months ago and since then my periods have as usual been really irregular. Lots of spotting in between and bleeding most of the time. Anyway I know that the coil is supposed to stop your periods but I haven't had done since November and it just doesn't feel right. My stomach is bloated and I just generally feel a bit strange. I do know of someone who fell pregnant despite having the merina coil fitted, but does anyone else know if this is common? Don't want to get too excited as it may just be that the coil is doing it's job. [/b]
